[size=32]NEWS: Sunderland FINALLY get their man as Charlie Wyke arrives to lead our assault on League One[/size]

Sunderland have completed the signing of 25-year old striker Charlie Wyke from Bradford City, and he arrives with the remit to score the goals that fire Jack Ross’ side towards promotion and back to the Championship.

Sunderland AFC have completed the signing of Charlie Wyke for an undisclosed fee.The 25-year-old striker joins from Bradford City ahead of the 2018-19 campaign, and becomes Jack Ross’ eleventh summer recruit.Born in Middlesbrough, Wyke is one of Sky Bet League One’s most prolific strikers, having bagged 23 goals and 13 assists in 62 appearances for the Bantams.16 of those came last season as the club finished 11th in the third tier, but his game is about far more than goals and his all-round play makes him a force to be reckoned with.Speaking about the move, Wyke admitted he can’t wait to get started: “I’m delighted to get it over the line so that I can concentrate on my football again.“It’s a massive club, and coming from the north east, I know exactly how much it means to people.“The one thing that everybody wants here is promotion, so we have to get that and win as many games as we can.“I can’t wait to get started.”Wyke started his career at the Riverside Stadium, progressing through the ranks and scoring regularly at every level before earning a professional contract.The striker continued his development with loan spells at Kettering Town, Hartlepool United and AFC Wimbledon, with a permanent move to Carlisle United coming to fruition in 2015.He notched 39 times in 89 appearances during an 18-month spell at Blundell Park, and he’s continued his fine form throughout his time at Valley Parade.

Jordan Jones has taken to Twitter to congratulate Charlie Wyke after the striker completed his move from Bradford City to Sunderland this week.

Wyke has become Jack Ross' second striker signing of the summer after following Jerome Sinclair through the Stadium of Light door just a couple of days before the Black Cats begin life in League One with a clash with Charlton Athletic this weekend.

And after completing the move, Wyke received a message from Kilmarnock winger Jones on social media, with the 23-year-old expressing his delight for the forward. Here is the message Jones sent Wyke...

It may have surprised some that Jones has messaged Wyke in the wake of his move, but the pair have been teammates in the past, with both men coming through the ranks at Middlesbrough before getting their senior careers up and running elsewhere.

But despite their connection, the fact that Jones has tweeted Wyke may well lead to plenty of tongue in cheek comments from the Sunderland supporters given that Jones himself is reportedly on Ross' radar this summer.

The Daily Mail reported towards the end of last month that Sunderland were in talks with Killie over a potential deal for Northern Ireland international, and it would be little surprise if many Black Cats supporters were now urging Jones to follow in Wyke's footsteps and make the same move this summer.
